MR Images, Brain Lesions, and Deep Learning
Medical brain image analysis is a necessary step in computer-assisted/computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems. Advancements in both hardware and software in the past few years have led to improved segmentation and classification of various diseases.

RP-CARS reveals molecular spatial order anomalies in myelin of an animal model of Krabbe disease [PDF]
Krabbe disease (KD) is a rare demyelinating sphingolipidosis, often fatal in the first years of life. It is caused by the inactivation of the galactocerebrosidase (GALC) enzyme that causes an increase in the cellular levels of psychosine considered to be at the origin of the tissue-level effects.

Macrophages and Autoantibodies in Demyelinating Diseases [PDF]
Myelin phagocytosis by macrophages has been an essential feature of demyelinating diseases in the central and peripheral nervous systems, including Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), and multiple sclerosis (MS). The discovery of autoantibodies, including anti-ganglioside GM1 antibodies in the axonal

Atypical demyelinating disease [PDF]
A 17 year old girl died after an illness characterized by progressive mental deterioration and severe myoclonic jerks. Extensive pathological, virological, and immunological studies failed to support the diagnosis of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis but were compatible with disseminated demyelinating disease.

Mechanisms and treatment strategies of demyelinating and dysmyelinating Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease
Schwann cells, the myelinating glia of the peripheral nervous system, wrap axons multiple times to build their myelin sheath. Myelin is of paramount importance for axonal integrity and fast axon potential propagation.

A diagnosis of demyelination carries important therapeutic and prognostic implications. In most cases the diagnosis is made clinically, and involvement of the histopathologist is largely confined to postmortem confirmation and clinicopathological correlation.

Changes of statistical structural fluctuations unveils an early compacted degraded stage of PNS myelin [PDF]
Degradation of the myelin sheath is a common pathology underlying demyelinating neurological diseases from Multiple Sclerosis to Leukodistrophies. Although large malformations of myelin ultrastructure in the advanced stages of Wallerian degradation is known, its subtle structural variations at early stages of demyelination remains poorly characterized.
